Welcome New CASAs

Chesterfield CASA is pleased to welcome five new child advocates! Sheryl, Maryn, Nichole, and Sarah were officially sworn in on May 14th by the Honorable Travis R. Williams, Chief Judge of the Chesterfield and Colonial Heights Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Courts. We are so grateful for their hard work in training and look forward to working with them on behalf of children in our community.

Metro CASA Training

Did you know that CASAs are required to participate in continuing education each year? Chesterfield CASA volunteers recently joined CASAs from our neighboring programs in Henrico, Richmond, Goochland, and Hanover to learn more about children’s mental health. Dr. Dorothy O’Keefe, Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist at the Children’s Hospital of Richmond, shared information on various diagnoses and treatment options for children and adolescents.
